Help !. I need to identify my jet model.

It is a flat top solid jet. It has an ELECTROMATIC emblem across the top of the headstock. Flat body, non bound. 2x gretsch humbuckers, broadcaster size. Block inlay. Four controls, 2x volume, 2x tone. 3 way pickup selector at the top. This one is a sunburst finish. Having fun with this guitar, would like to know all I can about it. Thanks, Spikeread..

Thank you all for your welcome. I am now going to attempt to attach the photo's of the 'mystery-machine'!,
Ok, looks like we got it, thanks to my 15 year old daughter. Am 74 now and need all the help I can git ! ha. On these pics as I said, I' m just having fun with this guitar, I picked it up last year and love it. Have and have had many up market guitars in my time but love the way budget instruments are so good these days. Originally the headstock just had the Electromatic logo, trussrod cover was plain and no decorative work. Am in the process of fitting Tremelo, waiting for springs so it's a 'two string' fiddle right now. Block inlay fretboard certainly looks original. No numbering or lettering anywhere, not even a sticker saying 'made in China', or even Timbucktoo.......It is very well put together, I'm sure it's not 'a bitza'. Came minus a scratchplate, so no clue there. The 'G' and pickguard I've added too. There is no stamping or writing in the channeling . With the Gretsch pickups and Electromatic logo it would seem that that is what it is, but, I have made many checks, Google etc can find no reference to anything under an Electromatic Banner alone. I found a mention of some models made in Japan or Korea that were for their 'home market' only, could't find any description though.. So here we are, thats my problem ! well one of them ha. Again thank you for my welcome and your patience while this old fella struggles on.

Hello Englishman, were you born here in uk ?. I lived in the States for a while in the 80's, my c b handle was Englishman , I drove a liquid food tanker all over the shop. I see you are in Detroit, that reminded me of being on the way back into the US from Windsor, Canada. I found myself stranded in 'no mans land' on the Ambassador Bridge there. . They wanted to see my uk passport !..........problem was it was down in Florida !, I did have copy of my work permit which probably saved the day, they did make me wait all night before letting me back in though, gave me a chance to catch some sleep. Anyway, thanks a lot, and good luck with my enquiry Sir.

Possibility it's a dolled up G2403 Jet Club with swapped pickups, added trem, I kind of like the pick guard and headstock. Junior Jet model numbers are sometimes hard to figure out. There were a lot of versions of these and the model numbers also were indicative of color. I have never have found the correct model number for mine yet. They are a nice platform for mods. Maybe someone will be along who can nail it.

That would be my assessment as well. Late 90s-early 2000s, pre-Fender.

Thanks Dave, It all helps, piece by piece will get there. I can't see even a trace of a number. Does yours have 4 controls or 3, also is your headstock logo Electromatic please. John

A lot of these era Juniors/Clubs are the dickens to identify back to a model number. Different colors = different model numbers, single pups, 2 pups, differing number of knobs, to make it more confusing there was a Synchromatic line that sort of mirrored the Electromatic line, and they were so cheap no one cared. Have fun with yours. That's what these are for.

Dave, Ah, now we getting there !. Thank you so much for this, excellant. Love the pics. Yep, having fun for sure. Got some more plans for it. I can't get used to how good the low end priced guitars are nowadays. When I started out, 1959, they were hells own job to try and learn on !, ha, the affordable ones heh, somehow kept going though.
